House Salad will be served at the table with a choice of their house dressings.

Ice cream sundae bar, and fresh chocolate cookies.

Cash bar

We will have the room from 3 pm to 7 pm. Please arrive on time or you will miss out on the hot Hors d’oeuvres!

.

Because of the change in venue, we ask that reservations be made and that payment for dinner be made in advance so as to let all Gruppe members enjoy the party. The cost to you is $50 per person–the actual cost of the dinner per person is greater than $50 and is being subsidized by your club!

.

There are two payment methods offered. You can mail a check to Barb Skirmants or you can pay by credit card to Barb through 356 Enterprises and Barb will write a check to the Gruppe (Any credit card payments will have 4% added to cover credit card charges to the Skirmants’ account).

As of today I only had 4 people signed up for the picnic scheduled to be here on August 13. After talking to Dave Burton this morning, we have decided to CANCEL the picnic here on August 13, and invite all of you out to Waterford Hills on Saturday August 5th to see Vic race and attend the Saturday evening dinner at a small fee.

.

We have reserved a 20 x 20 tent with tables and chairs at Waterford, end of the straight, same location we had the 1998 Holiday tent. Bring your cooler and beverages and snacks, food is available to purchase at the race track. This change in venue will save the club about $2,000, plus the wear and tear on us.

Please drive out to Waterford Hills the first weekend of August, especially Saturday August 5, 2017. That night there is a dinner banquet where Vic will be honored. There is a small cost for the banquet, but well worth it to honor our dear friend.

.

From the Waterford Hills Website:

.

“As per what WE think of as tradition, we honor every other year or so, a Prodigal Son Of Waterford Hills. This year, it’s Vic Skirmants’ time in the spotlight. Rest assured, long tales and true stories are sure to be shared. Mark your calendars and spread the gossip. It’s Weekend @ VIC’S (think Weekend at Bernie’s, we can be a silly lot you know)”

.

We look forward to seeing the Gruppe well represented in the spectator area!

Hello friends, its that time of year again, to remember our lady friends who are no longer with us. Vic and I sponsored six “In Memory of” signs that will be placed in front of the Welcome tent at the Zoo. The date is April 29, 7 am. Please consider joining our 356MCG2017 team that Harry Kurrie set up for us while Vic and I were racing in FL.

New Venue for and Old and Well Loved Event

.

Mary Liz Curtin Stephen Scannel have always been gracious hosts for our Winter Pot Luck Dinner. Over the years it has been held in their wonderful shop Leon and Lulu but this year we moved next door to their newest venture, the Clawson Theater and what a great venue to hold not just our event, but any kind of indoor event, really. Be sure to stop in when in the area.

.

.

We had about 50 people this year, a good sign that we are ready for spring and the advent of the driving season. Be sure to look for an announcement soon about the 2017 Spring Tour, entering its 25th year!

This years pot luck will take place at their new venue next door, The Clawson Theater. Park on the West side of the Theater building, enter via the side entrance. This new venue is a lunch room café and tea room. It has seating and room for all our dishes with plenty of shopping on hand also.

THE FOREST LAKE COUNTRY CLUB

1401 Club Drive Bloomfield Hills, MI 48302

Forest Lake Country Club is located just off of Square Lake Road, West of Telegraph. The party starts at 3 pm for appetizers, cash bar and socializing. Dinner will be served at 4pm and is a station buffet style with a very nice variety. The actual menu will be posted here soon, but last year we had a fabulous salad bar, prime rib, salmon, and a hot station risotto bar with condiments that you could add to your risotto like spinach and several cheeses.

.

There is a charge of $60.00 each this year and is well worth the price. The setting is beautiful, the view over the lake at sunset was peaceful and relaxing, NO work for anyone in the club, just arrive and enjoy.
